Expansion of Single-Player Content

I will like to suggest more single-player content to be added to Tera, such as:

- More ACE dungeons to be added
- More Echoes of Aranea dungeons to be added
- Similar instances whereby a player solo kills a boss, like that of Pit of Petrax and Ghillieglade, to be added

Would facilitate farming of enchantment mats and increase replayability of content for players who have limited time everyday in Tera or players who play Tera at non-peak hours

    The most rewarding content in the game is currently solo content (Island of Dawn). The next most rewarding content is Harrowhold (20-man raid) which is actually less rewarding this season than last season (when it was a 30-man raid).

    The current "hardest" dungeon (besides Harrowhold) is one of the worst rewarding dungeons they've had in a long time. The only notable drops you gain from it are Deathwrack materials, which means that farming the dungeon after you get full Deathwrack is useless except to help other players get their Deathwrack or to get your achievements.

    KTERA recently did a revamp to the gearing system and, as such, reworked rewards for all contents. Island of Dawn is still very rewarding but the gold value was nerfed (though I think it was buffed again? not sure). Dungeons were supposed to have been given better rewards/vanguards to make them more worthwhile to run when compared to solo content, but since we don't have the patch, I'm not sure how true it is.

    TL;DR: Island of Dawn (solo content) is more than sufficient for players to farm enchantment mats and is repeatable 6 times a day per character.

    wtf last time I looked MMO was massively multiplayer online meaning we all play on the same platform not we are one group doing the same [filtered] at the same time in the same place
    thousands of solo players in on the same platform (game) is still an mmo
    and back when I started tera's dg's had a solo choice as well , but it was phased out to try to have more player interaction but to me seemed to cause more divide as players now had to IM which brought on kicking and verbal abuse
    ive played this game solo and with groups even been in a guild now trying to run one my self and ran a few 5 player DG's solo (not all) and have multi toons across multi servers
    so why cant a player for what ever reason play tera's content solo due to time zone limitations or all the way to coming here with out knowing any one in game
    but wants to play with out doing the same minimal content offered to solo players

    Rewards for end-game dungeons have been mostly VM materials/designs. Drops are being slightly adjusted soon, but this issue isn't exclusive to VSHM, it was like this for RMHM, SSHM, etc. Drops only changed based on events. The same goes for IOD, their contents have been the same, just different name/icons for each new VM set. It's why IOD is consistently better, the formula simply hasn't changed.

    We need revamped Alliance, it had Solo PVE, Party PVE, Solo PVP, Party PVP, OW Solo PVP/PVE, OW Party PVP/PVE.

    Yeah, well, which idiot decided to take that away, I don't know.

    You forget that multiple time zones or simply player time frames are a thing. Not everyone can play the group content properly based on their daily play time, you may want to do it but you log into a time where very few people do so, and like on weekends and such you can play again group stuff: that's when solo content comes in hand.
    It's not like you're forced to do group stuff just because it's an MMO.

    Trying to use the "it's an NA game, so deal with NA time zones" like some people say (I'm NOT saying you used that argument or anyone here for that matter) is no excuse, since the above still applies even on a same time zone. People may have work or classes (or both) on times that block the popular play time frame.

    I would say it's not about rewards, but ending up as boring repetition instead, sure we got the rewards but for the price of farming like a bot daily. I've tried to farm IoD BAMs before, and while I did manage to do it for like 30 minutes or such, I got tired of that quickly enough.

    Ridiculous, if one wishes to do solo content he should go download a single-player game and play that.
    Tera EU exists for people with different time zones, you can't argue with me about this.
    The company doesn't need to go out of its way to make sure people from different time zones can enjoy the game. when the game literally exists for EU players. Waste of resources, waste of time.
    And again this is an MMO, IMSing is slow as ever and you want to add more solo content? Absolutely unnecessary.

    Harder ace dungeons would be nice, the current offerings are pretty boring.

    Project much? This is the kind of nonconstructive trashposting I was talking about. The whole point of an MMO (which stands for massively multiplayer online) is to play with other people. Why would we want to further encourage soloing, antisocial behavior, in a game which is designed for you to work with other players?

    lols? please, thank you very much.

    1st: I am not constructing anything, BHS does, wait BHS is not constructing anything too, moves on.

    read my 1st reply by the way. Also Antisocial behavior is part of a MMO, MMO reflects real life attitudes too, I play however I like, that is part of its nature, you don't get it then that is your problem, you wanna run HH? Fine, you have it, I like doing GG, I have it, You need to have things for all kind of player. Someone wants solo content, someone wants multiplayer.

    PS: You don't know me and how I contribute to my server, I pick healers during all cross server event such as Argon event to be helpful to community, Antisocial are the ones that are in high end gears and thinks it is fun to snipe bosses when others are working together for all of them, and be toxic.
  • it would be more MMO like if open world BAMS and world bosses were cooperatively fought without having to "formal" group or party. then you would have community going on.
